It's market manipulation at this point. Everyone in the inner circle is raking in record trading profits. -

They certainly have no excuse the second time round. While noone might have known how bad Trump 2.0 could be, the first time was enough of a clue. And Project 2025 was a great big blaring billboard.
Another way to put it if only the Democrats had put slightly more engaging candidates they wouldn't have lost to trump in either of those elections but they where blinded by ideology and handcuffed by internal politics.
Seems like we will see by end of week if Trumps inflict the least necessary recession in history on us because he has delusions.
Nahh, Kamala Harris lost due to inflation and people not understanding how inflation works. There was no candidate who could have undone the inflation that occurred coming out of the Covid lockdowns. -

So, maybe I am missing something, but can someone enlighten me on the proposed US brokered peace deal/mineral rights deal?
The US under Trump is not going to give security guarantees to Ukraine. Not that US security guarantees mean very much anyway - just ask the Marsh Arabs, Syrian Kurds or, well, Ukraine. Unless they involve building and staffing large military bases similar to South Korea. Which is not happening anywhere under either party with the current US political climate.
Any military re-supply from the US is going to be charged at the same rates other countries pay, with high interest rates and loans based in US dollars if Ukraine doesn't have the ready cash. Investment from the US would come from the private sector, or again as a loan with high interest. So, what is the US actually bringing to the table that they should be getting anything in return? Based on what they are providing, I don't even see a reason for the US to be a party to the agreement.
Edit:
The better bet to me looks to be to ditch the US in the agreement altogether and aim at a deal brokered through the EU, as the EU is not demanding repayment of loans or mineral rights and represents most of the countries willing to send troops to Ukraine if there is a deal. -

Maybe if he idk... Didn't start a war no one else wanted he wouldn't look like such a wanker.
Trump: Tariffs!!!! Wait no, only some tariffs!!! Fentanyl, it's all about fentanyl and murderers!!!! Wait, no, let's delay tariffs!!!!! No, tariffs for everybody! Wait, just some tariffs for somebody!!!! CUSMA, somebody explain CUSMA!!!!
Canada, Mexico, China: Nah, y'know what... Fuck it and fuck you. TRADE WAR TIME JERKFACE!!!!!!!!!!!
......leaving aside my inherent sense of disbelief that anything brought Canada and China together against the US ffs...
That's because round 2 electric boogaloo will be trump promises china to take tariffs off if they levy counter tariffs on Canada.
Not just taking tariffs off, he'll promise to withhold support from Taiwan in return for Chinese aid against Canada.
